I am just finishing a set of these for my 21 month old son. I’m a novice sewer, and wasn’t up for the applique, so I simply sewed buttons (with double and triple knots!) for him to count. So far he loves the bags I’ve given him! Thanks for the idea!

I just made these for my nephew for Xmas. I used iron-on transfer paper to print out the patterns to go on top (eg 1 fire-truck, 2 tractors etc). I’m a novice sewer but I’m pretty pleased with how they turned out!

Heard Tina on NPR this morning and went to her site for some ideas. Love the bean bags! Am heading home for the Thanksgiving holiday and wanted to bring something a little special for my neice and nephew that we could play with together. This works!

My grandmother made bean bags for me when I was a child. She was often my roommate when she came for a visit and we would have a great time tossing them to each other across the room to each other. As I got older, used them to learn how to juggle.

I’m going to take this idea one step further. I have an empty red plastic Folgers coffee container with a black snap lid. Am going to decoupage the outside of the container with fun pictures. The container can be used for a game of bean bag toss as well as storage for the beanbags. Thanks!
